Here’s the scoop:
Kids are awesome. And being a kid means living right in the middle of an amazing time of growth and development.
And for some kids, development looks a bit different. Concerns might be raised by a parent, a primary-care pediatrician, or anyone else who’s got a kid’s best interests at heart.
As a neuro-developmental pediatrician, I combine medical training and over fifteen years of experience to identify developmental issues. And then I work with families to address these challenges for the long term.
Among the challenges that my patients face:
* Autism Spectrum Disorders Asperger profile;
* Anxiety;
* Attentional issues (ADHD);
* Delays in speech (expressive, receptive, or both).
Finally, I’ve learned over time that the more quickly I can put a kid and a family at ease, the easier it is to identify what's going on and how to help.
